	F-14 Tomcat
		Experimentation with gravity bombs hung beneath standard Tomcats had taken place just prior to Desert Storm, although it was realised that the F-14 would not be a viable fighter/attack platform without some kind of precision weapons delivery capability.

	Grumman F-14 Tomcat
		The Grumman F-14 Tomcat carrier-based interceptor fighter is a relatively elderly design by contemporary world standards, but continual developments and improvements have maintained its capabilities to the extent that it is still a potent threat and an effective deterrent to any hostile air force unwise enough to threaten US Navy carrier battle groups.
		One F-14 Tomcat was lost in action on January 21 when it was shot down by an Iraqi surface-to-air missile.
		Existing Tomcats were retrofitted with the P-414, and the last TF30-P-412 powered F-14A was finally out of service in the summer of 1979.

	The Grumman F-14 Tomcat
		It was the Tomcat's fortune (or misfortune) to go into service in the role of defending Navy fleet elements at a time when threats to US ships in the open ocean sea were on the decline, and so during that era the Tomcat didn't really see a great deal of shooting action.
		Both Tomcats focused on the lead Su-22 since it was the most immediate threat, but when Muczynski reported that he had a target lock on the bandit Kleeman turned to get on the tail of the second Su-22, which was passing them.
		Tomcat production put Grumman under severe financial stress, since the contract with the Navy had specified a fixed delivery cost and the late 1970s were a time of abnormally high price inflation in the US.

	Aerospaceweb.org Ask Us - F-14 Tomcat Replacement Proposals
		The ASF-14 would have used the F-14D as a starting point and incorporate many of the multi-role fighter and ground attack features proposed for the Quickstrike and Super Tomcat 21.
		The AST21 was generally similar to the Super Tomcat 21, but with even more additional fuel carried in a thicker wing and the ability to carry larger external stores, including nuclear weapons.
		Among the changes was a redesign of the wing gloves to improve maneuverability and supersonic aerodynamics as well as provide room for enough additional fuel that would nearly double the aircraft's range.

	Aircraft: Grumman F-14A Tomcat
		Miami, FL It is indeed sad that the fantastic F-14 is leaving service and being replaced for the F-18E, which most experts catalog as inferior in all aspects (except avionics) to the Tomcat.
		Just look at the single vertical-vin (instead of two, which the Tomcat has!) and the intake size, its much to small (a Tomcat intake is way wider, ones you look at it from this angle!).
		From all the American Fighter jets, the Tomcat is the most recognized and loved around the world.
